Apple face-recognition blamed by New York teen Ousmane Bah for false arrest

MANHATTAN - A New York student sued Apple for US$1 billion , claiming the company's facial-recognition software falsely linked him to a series of thefts from Apple stores.

The arrest warrant included a photo that did not resemble Bah, he said in a lawsuit filed on Monday . Bah said he had previously lost a non-photo learner's permit, which may have been found or stolen by the real thief and used as identification in Apple stores.
